my guess is that you won't find good music on 99.5 anymore... They 
started the countdown at 70,000 (the voice synthesizer is of very poor
quality... reminded me of the TRS-80 Model I version from circa 1979?)
Thursday at Midnight after spending all Christmas Eve with some hick
(named "Hugh Chardon"... say it out loud) playing the same Garth Brooks 
song over and over and over, all day, whilst trying to kill/maim/symbolically
destroy the old station mascot, the "FOX".
  
My s.o. says that the rumor she heard was that WOWF (99.5's new call
letters) has been bought out by a country station and is going to 
be switching to a country format.  UGH.  Just what we need.
  
When I drove into work this morning about 3 a.m., the countdown was
at somewhere around 25,000... so I'm guessing it'll hit zero sometime
Monday afternoon/evening....

99... it's not cool anymore and you'll know it.
